“City leaders have given initial approval to an ordinance criminalizing landlords who rent to illegal immigrants, the latest of a handful of cities nationwide to pass laws cracking down on people who hire or rent to undocumented immigrants.

The 3-2 vote followed a three hour debate that was frequently interrupted by shouts from some of the 350 people who filled the City Council chamber. On the lawn outside, hundreds of pro- and anti- illegal immigration activists rallied and watched a live broadcast of the debate on large television screens.”
